They did change a lot of things for ideological reasons, to adapt for modern audiences. Does it mean this is woke? Not sure.

Someone mentioned that a lot of logs (the ones I never read) mention gay relationships. Like most of them. But at this point in time, with 23% of young people identifying as alphabet people, is this woke or just reality? I may not like the way clown world is changing but it is no denying it is changing.

Having gender ideology in the future also looks like a certainty at this point.

Even having diversity in everything and F capitalism messages, isn't that just the norm for large companies? How many anti-capitalists are posting from their iPhone while working for Google or Amazon. When was the last time white people are put in posters. If anything there are to many white people.

The fact that we are not sure just means that the overtone window has shifted considerably to the left. At this point, what is woke anymore? Would 2 hairy drag queen fucking be considered woke anymore? And if it is, for how long?

Black pill moment for me, the culture is forever changed to the left.

That's like saying "the game features normalization of MAPs because it's become legalized. Is it woke if they're just reflecting reality?"

Yes. The simple answer is YES!

They are reinforcing woke ideology through cultural cultivation. And the whole point is to get people to stop questioning it or reacting negatively to it because it's become "normalized".

How do you people still not see this? They will keep pushing and keep making degenerate ideas normalized, and they are doing this through every facet of societal interaction in Western culture.

It's people like you who will eventually succumb to this normalization, because you don't see it (or refuse? Not sure which).

I usually try to avoid commenting here but this kind of naiveté is absolutely grating, because the people here are supposed to be aware of what's happening, not making excuses for it or accepting it as normal.

Once you start accepting and conceding their ideas, you've already lost.

It's woke, plain and simple.

The original Deadspace did not promote homosexual relationships in the game. Adding it to the remake is changing an old story to meet current sociopolitical trends. It's to reinforce ideas to make people like you react exactly the way you have, which is generally: It's everywhere in society, therefore it's normal that it's everywhere in media.

But it's all circular: it's everywhere in society because it's everywhere in media. A never-ending ouroboros of agitprop. They will keep pushing and normalizing this frame of thought to keep moving the Overton Window further Left.

But this is all a waste, because if people don't see it now, nothing I type here will get through to those who haven't seen how cultivation theory is being used to change how people perceive the normalization of sociopolitical propaganda.

It is mildly demoralizing to see how many people on this board make excuses for modern woke crap so they can merely consoom. There is plenty of old media to entertain yourself with, though some leftist messaging is still present of course.

I'm just pointing out they are succeeding.

If you want a little white pill so you don't go full doomer on us, take this into account.

Despite all this media 'appealing to modern audiences' and whatever polling might say about the current younger generations, most of them either flop at box office/sell numbers or barely scrape even.

You know what made a killing last year? Top Gun Maverick

I think there is a big disconnect between what people say they support, appreciate and want more of and what they ACTUALLY will spend money on or time to watch and the big companies can't tell that difference.

So the the Overton window has shifted more left (in the West only really) in what people claim is permissable but in reality, they like the classic traditional stuff.

I'm slowly watching series 12 right now. The creators realized they make more money just releasing it, but they take their time. Alan won by blowing a feather across a table with his nose in the fastest time.
